The compiler outputs PROC32_ID symbols into the object files
for functions, and these symbols have an embedded type index
which, when copied to the PDB, refer to the IPI stream. However,
the symbols themselves are also converted into regular symbols
(e.g. S_GPROC32_ID -> S_GPROC32), and type indices in the regular
symbol records refer to the TPI stream. So this patch applies
two fixes to function records.
1. It converts ID symbols to the proper non-ID record type.
2. After remapping the type index from the object file's index
space to the PDB file/IPI stream's index space, it then
remaps that index to the TPI stream's index space by.
Besides functions, during the remapping process we were also
discarding symbol record types which we did not recognize.
In particular, we were discarding S_BPREL32 records, which is
what MSVC uses to describe local variables on the stack. So
this patch fixes that as well by copying them to the PDB.

Summary:
Instead of wiring these through the CVTypeVisitor interface, clients
should inspect the CVTypeArray before visiting it and potentially load
up the type server's TPI stream if they need it.
No tests relied on this functionality because LLD was the only client.

Summary:
The main complexity in adding symbol records is that we need to
"relocate" all the type indices. Type indices do not have anything like
relocations, an opaque data structure describing where to find existing
type indices for fixups. The linker just has to "know" where the type
references are in the symbol records. I added an overload of
`discoverTypeIndices` that works on symbol records, and it seems to be
able to link the standard library.

Suppose we had a type index offsets array with a boundary at type index
N. Then you request the name of the type with index N+1, and that name
requires the name of index N-1 (think a parameter list, for example). We
didn't handle this, and we would print something like (<unknown UDT>,
<unknown UDT>).
The fix for this is not entirely trivial, and speaks to a larger
problem. I think we need to kill TypeDatabase, or at the very least kill
TypeDatabaseVisitor. We need a thing that doesn't do any caching
whatsoever, just given a type index it can compute the type name "the
slow way". The reason for the bug is that we don't have anything like
that. Everything goes through the type database, and if we've visited a
record, then we're "done". It doesn't know how to do the expensive thing
of re-visiting dependent records if they've not yet been visited.
What I've done here is more or less copied the code (albeit greatly
simplified) from TypeDatabaseVisitor, but wrapped it in an interface
that just returns a std::string. The logic of caching the name is now in
LazyRandomTypeCollection. Eventually I'd like to move the record
database here as well and the visited record bitfield here as well, at
which point we can actually just delete TypeDatabase. I don't see any
reason for it if a "sequential" collection is just a special case of a
random access collection with an empty partial offsets array.

Instead use target_link_libraries directly. Thanks to
Juergen Ributzka for the suggestion, which fixes an issue
when llvm is configured with no targets.

Many times unit tests for different libraries would like to use
the same helper functions for checking common types of errors.
This patch adds a common library with helpers for testing things
in Support, and introduces helpers in here for integrating the
llvm::Error and llvm::Expected<T> classes with gtest and gmock.
Normally, we would just be able to write:
EXPECT_THAT(someFunction(), succeeded());
but due to some quirks in llvm::Error's move semantics, gmock
doesn't make this easy, so two macros EXPECT_THAT_ERROR() and
EXPECT_THAT_EXPECTED() are introduced to gloss over the difficulties.
Consider this an exception, and possibly only temporary as we
look for ways to improve this.

Merging two type streams is one of the most time consuming
parts of generating a PDB, and as such it needs to be as
fast as possible. The visitor abstractions used for interoperating
nicely with many different types of inputs and outputs have
been used widely and help greatly for testability and implementing
tools, but the abstractions build up and get in the way of
performance.
This patch removes all of the visitation stuff from the type
stream merger, essentially re-inventing the leaf / member switch
and loop, but at a very low level. This allows us many other
optimizations, such as not actually deserializing *any* records
(even member records which don't describe their own length), as
the operation of "figure out how long this record is" is somewhat
faster than "figure out how long this record *and* get all its
fields out". Furthermore, whereas before we had to deserialize,
re-write type indices, then re-serialize, now we don't have to
do any of those 3 steps. We just find out where the type indices
are and pull them directly out of the byte stream and re-write
them.
This is worth a 50-60% performance increase. On top of all other
optimizations that have been applied this week, I now get the
following numbers when linking lld.exe and lld.pdb
MSVC: 25.67s
Before This Patch: 18.59s
After This Patch: 8.92s
So this is a huge performance win.

This was originally reverted because it was a breaking a bunch
of bots and the breakage was not surfacing on Windows. After much
head-scratching this was ultimately traced back to a bug in the
lit test runner related to its pipe handling. Now that the bug
in lit is fixed, Windows correctly reports these test failures,
and as such I have finally (hopefully) fixed all of them in this
patch.

This is a squash of ~5 reverts of, well, pretty much everything
I did today. Something is seriously broken with lit on Windows
right now, and as a result assertions that fire in tests are
triggering failures. I've been breaking non-Windows bots all
day which has seriously confused me because all my tests have
been passing, and after running lit with -a to view the output
even on successful runs, I find out that the tool is crashing
and yet lit is still reporting it as a success!
At this point I don't even know where to start, so rather than
leave the tree broken for who knows how long, I will get this
back to green, and then once lit is fixed on Windows, hopefully
hopefully fix the remaining set of problems for real.

Right now we have multiple notions of things that represent collections of
types. Most commonly used are TypeDatabase, which is supposed to keep
mappings from TypeIndex to type name when reading a type stream, which
happens when reading PDBs. And also TypeTableBuilder, which is used to
build up a collection of types dynamically which we will later serialize
(i.e. when writing PDBs).
But often you just want to do some operation on a collection of types, and
you may want to do the same operation on any kind of collection. For
example, you might want to merge two TypeTableBuilders or you might want
to merge two type streams that you loaded from various files.
This dichotomy between reading and writing is responsible for a lot of the
existing code duplication and overlapping responsibilities in the existing
CodeView library classes. For example, after building up a
TypeTableBuilder with a bunch of type records, if we want to dump it we
have to re-invent a bunch of extra glue because our dumper takes a
TypeDatabase or a CVTypeArray, which are both incompatible with
TypeTableBuilder.
This patch introduces an abstract base class called TypeCollection which
is shared between the various type collection like things. Wherever we
previously stored a TypeDatabase& in some common class, we now store a
TypeCollection&.
The advantage of this is that all the details of how the collection are
implemented, such as lazy deserialization of partial type streams, is
completely transparent and you can just treat any collection of types the
same regardless of where it came from.

There is often a lot of boilerplate code required to visit a type
record or type stream. The #1 use case is that you have a sequence
of bytes that represent one or more records, and you want to
deserialize each one, switch on it, and call a callback with the
deserialized record that the user can examine. Currently this
requires at least 6 lines of code:
codeview::TypeVisitorCallbackPipeline Pipeline;
Pipeline.addCallbackToPipeline(Deserializer);
Pipeline.addCallbackToPipeline(MyCallbacks);
codeview::CVTypeVisitor Visitor(Pipeline);
consumeError(Visitor.visitTypeRecord(Record));
With this patch, it becomes one line of code:
consumeError(codeview::visitTypeRecord(Record, MyCallbacks));
This is done by having the deserialization happen internally inside
of the visitTypeRecord function. Since this is occasionally not
desirable, the function provides a 3rd parameter that can be used
to change this behavior.
Hopefully this can significantly reduce the barrier to entry
to using the visitation infrastructure.

This adds a visitor that is capable of accessing type
records randomly and caching intermediate results that it
learns about during partial linear scans. This yields
amortized O(1) access to a type stream even though type
streams cannot normally be indexed.
